The BlueCard® Program

Traveling across the country or around the world? The BlueCard Program* helps Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico (BCBSNM) members:

Get needed health care when you travel or live outside your Blue Plan service area

Get the same benefits as your BCBSNM plan when you travel or are away from home for an extended amount of time

Find a doctor or hospital throughout the United States — More than 90% of all hospitals and doctors in the U.S. contract with Blue Cross and Blue Shield (BCBS)

Find a doctor or hospital outside the U.S. in more than 200 countries around the world through BlueCard Worldwide®

BlueCard coverage varies for each BCBS Plan. It depends on if you choose a provider who contracts with BCBS. Be sure to call Customer Service at the number on the back of your member ID card before you travel.

The Away from Home Care® Program

Access for Extended Stays (Temporarily Residing Away From Home)

BCBSNM members who have HMO plans may become guests of an affiliated HMO when they are away from home for at least 90 days. The Away From Home Care Program is ideal for members who:

Have a child attending school out of state

Have family members who live in different service areas

Have a long-term work assignment in another state

This program allows ongoing access to contracting hospitals and doctors.

If you are already a BCBSNM member, log in to Blue Access for Members to get more information about Away From Home Care. Call the customer service number on the back of your member ID card to find out where the program is available.
